    AbstractThis viewpoint emphasises the vital role that paediatric physiotherapy plays in satisfying children's rehabilitation requirements, especially those of children with chronic illnesses and impairments. It highlights issues including inadequate education and a lack of personnel, underscoring the need for individualised care in a variety of paediatric settings. The letter promotes more knowledge, financing, and research to improve the quality and accessibility of paediatric physical therapy services offered worldwide. It urges medical practitioners and legislators to address these significantly unmet needs in order to improve developmental outcomes and assure children's optimal physical well-being through the prioritisation of early intervention and tailored therapy. Key Words: Paediatric physiotherapy, Rehabilitation, Physical therapy.
